Abstract

Mighty River Power has committed to an ambitious geothermal exploration and development program. Mighty River Power is aiming to build a NZ$1 billion geothermal business that will make New Zealand a world leader in geothermal energy production. In partnership with Maori, Mighty River Power is now active in four geothermal fields: Kawerau, Rotokawa, Mokai, and Ngatamariki. This paper outlines Mighty River Power’s geothermal development projects undertaken in conjunction with its Maori partners to help meet demand for renewable energy in New Zealand.
